Work-Based Learning(Co-op)

Work-Based Learning (Co-op) is a curriculum credit course that can provide on-the-job work experience for students enrolled in eligible programs. Students work in jobs related to their program of study and receive course credit for the learning that takes place on the job.

Not all programs have Work-Based Learning as an option and there are requirements that students must meet prior to enrolling in a WBL course. Work-Based Learning options for eligible programs are listed in each program of study.

For additional information, students may contact Jean Lane, Program Coordinator or their advisor.
